Her sons Rhys and Josh, 2, were born with the help of IVF treatment.

“We knew there was a chance of twins because doctors put two eggs in,” Mrs Pantling said.

“They did this so we would hopefully get one, and we got both.

“I fell into the 9 per cent chance to have them both.”

Mrs Pantling, 40, is able to compare the challenge of raising twins to having a single birth as she has three children aged, 23, 21, and 18 with her ex-husband.

She said one of her saviours had been the Albury-Wodonga Multiple Birth Association.

The group will celebrate Multiple Birth Awareness week — from March 8 to 15 — with a public morning tea on March 11 at 10am.

Mrs Pantling said the weekly playgroups on Wednesday at Felltimber Community Centre were a chance to connect with other mothers and children.

“The twins love this group and the mums are great to share information with,” she said.

While there are battles with juggling twins, Mrs Pantling said there were also positives like twice the cuddles and the love.

“They are so cute together,” she said.

“They always look for each other and that’s why we still have them sleeping in the same room.”

Apart from needing double the amount of nappies, food and toys, Mrs Pantling joked that double the number of arms would also come in handy.
